My skin can be rebellious and sensitive- despite the fact that I have decidedly combination skin, and as such I have to be careful about what I put on my face. Cleansers require a plethora of attributes to be considered for my well-edited list of daily go-to products. In order for a cleanser to really make the cut it must be gentle and non-stripping, but it must also clean very well. It cannot be too rich, otherwise it will break me out. It cannot be too astringent otherwise it will make my skin feel uncomfortable, and then cause my skin to overproduce oil- which likewise can cause my skin to breakout. I want it to be remarkable when used in conjunction with my Clarisonic, but it must also to be highly effective all on its own. It has to be just right-- striking a rarely found balance between opposing forces. Nobody was more surprised than I when I made the discovery that vbeauté's Evidence Eraser Gentle Foaming Cleanser met all of my criteria, and now it has firmly situated itself on my very short list of Holy Grail cleansers.
Description: "Evidence Eraser® Gentle Foaming Cleanser is formulated to erase the evidence of the day or night with tender attention to your skin's everyday needs. This luxe foam-burst gel cleanser gently washes away makeup and dirt so your skin can feel pore-minimized, softened and toned. Oil free." This lovely lightly foaming gel cleanser is so highly concentrated that it requires the smallest amount to effectively clean your face, neck and décolleté. In fact, I over dispensed in the picture below- half the amount will suffice.
Instructions (AM & PM): "Cleanse morning and/ or night. Massage a pearl sized amount of cleanser onto pre-moistened face and neck to achieve a gentle lather. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water. *Use AM when not using Rub Off."

Overall assessment: I am very hard to please when it comes to considering a cleanser worthy of the much sought after Holy Grail status. I like lots of cleansers, but I truly love very few. Evidence Eraser has made it into the inner sanctum of my Holy Grail products- you heard me right! This is gentle enough for people with sensitive skin and dry skins- yet oilier skin types will also find this to be a remarkably effective cleanser. It is a must have for me!
$48.00 3.4 oz. From vbeauté, Bergdorf Goodman, or these fine retailers.
